K7P vs K7R

Ontario

This page does not pick a winner. Every row shows two measurements and the gap between them. There is no score, no tally of which area “wins” more categories, and no overall result — those would be a rating of two places and the people who live in them, assembled by the layout.

Both areas are forward sortation areas, and every figure describes the whole of one. Crime is not shown here: it is reported at the metropolitan level, so for two areas in the same city it is usually the same number twice. It is on each area’s own page, with the geography it describes.

Selected 2021 Census figures for K7P and K7R, with the national figure for scale. The last column states the gap between the two areas as a direction and a size, never as a preference.

How each area sits against the city or province around it — a different geography on each side, named in every cell. Read down a column, not across: the two columns are measured against different places and a bigger gap in one says nothing about the other.

K7P is measured against Kingston, the metropolitan area holding 100% of its residents.
K7R is measured against Ontario: the nearest metropolitan area, Kingston, holds 5% of its residents, which is too little for it to describe this area.

Counts for each area. These describe the place and are not compared as ratios.

Private dwellings	9,538	6,845
Land area	30 km²	334 km²

Share of each area’s residents with an amenity within reach, weighted by where people live. A blank is a coverage fact, not a zero.
Amenity	Within	K7P	K7R
Grocery store	1 km walk	92%	55%
Public transit	1 km walk	92%	0%
Park	1 km walk	97%	54%
Pharmacy	1 km walk	79%	36%
Child care	1.5 km walk	92%	64%
Primary school	1.5 km walk	82%	36%
Secondary school	1.5 km walk	90%	36%
Library	1.5 km walk	19%	35%
Health care	3 km drive	100%	84%
Employment	10 km drive	100%	100%

These measure how close an amenity is, never its quality. A school 500 m away is a school 500 m away — nothing here says anything about the school itself.
The proximity index is scaled against all of Canada, where 1 is the single most well-served block in the country and the national average is close to zero. It is useful for comparing places and misleading as a score.

CMHC does not survey a rental zone covering either K7P or K7R. The survey covers centres of 10,000 people and up, so there is nothing published for either area.

The air quality index is a reading at the nearest station, which may be far away — the distance is shown because it decides whether the reading describes the area at all. Facility counts are reported releases within 10 km.

K7P: Measured at Kingston, 14 km from K7P. The index runs from 1 upward and combines ozone, fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide into one health-risk scale.
K7R: Measured at Belleville, 33 km from K7R. The index runs from 1 upward and combines ozone, fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide into one health-risk scale.

This page carries the figures the two areas can be set against each other on. Each area’s own page has the rest — including crime, the boundary map, and every source note and caveat in full.
